As a rule, the ‘pin’ lichen Calicium species are relatively uncommon in Ireland. This is one of Ireland’s rarities, a minute species with yellow frosting (pruina) around the disc which is supported by a golf-tee-like stalk two-tenths of a millimetre tall. Its headquarters is Killarney where it grows on holly but there is also a second locality for it in County Fermanagh.
